I was clearly too sober when I read the google translation yesterday... HS

Looks like a good day to me, ER. Cheers! Took the day off myself. Sipping some nice Guatemalan....beats the office. Here is something I bought myself recently...nothing fancy (Swedish outfit) but I've worn it more than anything else of late. I very much like the dimensions as many of the oversized watches du jour do not work for me. Came with a black strap also that's quite elegant, but I'm stuck on the olive for now... HS

Godspeed, Uncle Bob and John... HS

That Porter Cable is a good recommendation. Beat mine for years with zero drama. HS

Keeper! HS

Great, ain’t it?!? In all seriousness, my blue 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T weighs more due to the addition of safety and go-fast kit and is ~1.5 seconds faster in the quarter mile at this point. Low 10’s @ 13x mph vs 8.7 secs @ 161 mph in the quarter is a huge delta. The Demon sure is nicer to drive though HS

Whoops.... HS

Sexxxy..... HS

RIP, Gryphon... My condolences, SG HS

Fine for paint and oxidation removal, tho... HS

This should be entertaining... HS

RIP Frank, Cecil, Michael and Lee. HS

Studs stretch some or they break. Metallurgy... Not for the faint of heart when combined with high pressure, heat, detonation... HS

So I pushed my motor a bit more than I intended. Long story short I have a transmission controller and now that I converted the car to an automatic (could not get a manual to survive) I have been playing with locking the torque converter (fluid coupler). At the quarter mile, worked like a dream. Feels like a shift to another gear...powerful and great for my elapsed times and trap speed. Well, I tried the same at the standing mile last year and I had a different result than I planned. Basically, I use overdrive in the standing mile and when I finally got the transmission to take OD (4th gear for me) by getting out of it and bumping it to neutral and back, it made crazy power and pulled like I've never felt her go. That was the good part. The bad part is it excited the turbos more than planned and she made more boost at the manifold than I expected. Result...I raised the heads. So if you haven't seen this before, imagine all they dynamic cylinder compression created by the piston stroke with the benefit of turbo compression flaming out the side of the head/block area. Basically...a blow torch. Managed to get the car safely to a stop and aside from a bit of fire suppressant to ensure the smoking under the hood was not fire, not too hard on the motor/car. But I did do this to the heads and I wanted to share so you could 1) see what it looks like if you haven't before and 2) see some craftsmanship the gent that made these for me does on heads. Basically three steps thus far: my trashing them, welding and rough machining, and then cleaning them nicely. Note on the last step the chambers have been "softened"...there's an edge within the chamber if you will. That's for quenching and better handling the heat from boost and avoiding pre-detonation. vroom vroom... HS

Great looking watch! HS

I like the Tudor with the burgundy bezel. HS

The wifey broke the news to me. RIP Stephen. I hope you find all the answers... HS

RIP, David. Watched every episode...thank you. HS

Godspeed, Roger... HS

It's a good thing you're here to save us all money... HS

oh boy... HS

Somewhat speechless... https://www.massdrop.com/buy/mitchell-and-johnson-gl2-headphones?1=1&utm_placement=21&referer=DKSL7Y&mode=guest_open&utm_campaign=Automated Daily Promotional 2018-03-01&utm_source=SparkPost&utm_medium=email&utm_term=Daily Promotional&utm_content=1519887629504.596747551711605717660277 HS

Was listening to her just yesterday. HS
